Father of purpose and author of every person’s story, let Your pen write a chapter of abundant blessings in my life. May my soul rejoice in sweet rest, a deserved break from life’s hectic pace as I seek You in prayer each day. Reveal to me the opportunity to serve You in Kingdom capacity, Father. Protect me from bodily illness even as You expend my energy in the service of those less fortunate than myself. Grant me eyes to see You working in me as a vessel of beautiful mercy. In all that I accomplish on this planet, may I give glory to You by maintaining a humble spirit and contrite heart. Build me up with the character of Christ as the story continues to unfold, page by page, in the days to come. Under the merciful trusting Word of Isaiah 66:2 and the authority of Christ Jesus, I pray with a full heart.

All these things my hand has made,
    and so all these things came to be,
declares the Lord.
But this is the one to whom I will look:
    he who is humble and contrite in spirit
    and trembles at my word.
Isaiah 66:2, ESV
